Abstract

A fiber optic connector structure contains a base, a covering member, and a fitting sleeve. The base includes a holding face, two contacting portions, and at least one slot. A respective one of the at least one slot has an opening and has a bottom portion. The bottom portion of the respective one of the at least one slot has at least one notch, and a respective one of the at least one notch has a first inserting segment and a second inserting segment. The covering member includes two resilient extensions corresponding to the two contacting portions and a sliding block sliding from the opening to the bottom portion. The fitting sleeve is fitted on the base and the covering member, and provides a force on the sliding block, so that the sliding block retains the fiber stub and the field fiber.
